"It's a bit runny, sir."

A New York gallery on Sunday offered adventurous eaters the opportunity to sample cheese made from human breast milk, getting mixed reviews and some puzzled looks.
The Lady Cheese Shop is a temporary art installation by Miriam Simun, a graduate student at New York University who hopes to use the craft of cheese-making to raise questions about the ethics of modern biotechnologies.
"Cheese is the conversation starter," Simun said. "Some people are loving it, and some people are gagging."
Simun found three nursing women willing to have their milk turned into cheese. She screened the milk for diseases, pasteurized it and learned the basics of cheese-making.
Three varieties were available on Sunday -- West Side Funk, Midtown Smoke, described as "creamy and just pure heaven," and Wisconsin Chew, the taste of which apparently reflected the vegetable-filled diet of the woman who provided its milk.

Turning women into cows is not my idea of being progressive.
Not sure why the Feminists arent up in arms over this.
How does one REALLY know it’s from breast milk??
“Not sure why the Feminists aren’t up in arms over this.”
I’ll venture to guess it’s because they secretly hate women and are self-loathing, America-hating Commies dressed in pretty pink!
Just a thought... :)
What was that old ad line about contented cows?
The world is getting very weird.
I think Al Bundy said something like “why buy the cow when you’ve got one at home” :p
The “weird” comes mainly from our urban areas. DC, LA, NYC.

Remind me to nominate this as Post of the Year this December.
"It's a bit runny, sir."
Oh it’s pasteurized, well then, that’s OK then /sarc
I would at least like to see what the supplier looks like first...lol
Oh, but I like it runny.
So, instead of waiting to say "I'd hit that" you are waiting to say "I'd eat that" ? lol
Funny how that would make a difference.
BUT IT DOES !!
Or, in the case of the cartoon, an udder failure.
What a crazy world. Amish white-liquid dealers are being prosecuted while the breast milk-cheese cartels run amok.
I wish the weirdness were just confined to the über-liberal Metropolises, but it seems to be spreading.
